Deceased Preference Service has been developed by charity sector specialists
Smee and Ford Ltd (in association with Millennium plc) to give relatives
or partners of the deceased an easy, secure and proven method of removing
the deceased person's name and address details from mailing lists.
In 2002, over 22 million pieces of mail were received through people's letter-boxes addressed to the deceased*. Every year, many families experience the heartache of having to call the companies concerned at this distressing time, and request the removal of their loved one's personal details from marketing lists. Many reputable companies are trying to do something about this situation by subscribing to our service and making sure that the deceased are taken off their mailing files. Companies know this makes sense, because it avoids causing further distress to the bereaved. * Source: CIFAS, The UK's Fraud Prevention
